    excellent location

    The stay was comfortable, with helpful breakfast staff and a supportive manager who offered assistance when present. The location is excellent, just a few meters from the beach, and the peaceful surrounding restaurants added convenience to my work trip. I also appreciated the presence of snorkelling gear available at the hotel, which enhanced my experience while relaxing.

    spectacular location
    amazing staff

    Here’s the bottom line

    What a treasure! My room upgrade was fantastic, with a large balcony just 10 meters from the stunning bikini beach. The staff went above and beyond, arranging fun water activities and ensuring a smooth transport experience. The dive club offered excellent service, and the restaurant delivered a delightful array of dishes. Truly a remarkable stay!

    spacious room
    snorkeling discount

    The Deluxe Room offered a decent space and a discount on Manta snorkeling, making for an enjoyable aquatic experience.

    Certain amenities were lacking. the coffee quality was subpar, with mostly instant options, and the bathroom socket was non-functional upon arrival. The general craftsmanship of the property did not meet expectations, with visible gaps and uneven tiling in various areas.

    limited breakfast variety

    pleasant stay with room for improvement

    The rooms were spacious, providing a welcoming atmosphere for our family. The staff displayed a remarkable willingness to assist us, making our two-night stay enjoyable. We particularly appreciated the accessibility of the clean beach, complemented by the thoughtful foot shower system at the entrance.

    The breakfast could be improved to offer more variety.

    spacious room

    It was just a perfect match for a relaxing holiday in Ukulhas Island with extraordinarily good value for money. I really enjoyed the spacious atmosphere of the room that made it feel like home. Bring your own beach towels to avoid any inconvenience.

    beach activities
    friendly staff

    We had an amazing time with friends! Swimming with manta rays was the highlight. The sand was pristine, and the beach bar next door was perfect for relaxing after a busy day. The staff were friendly, and the daily transport to the boat made life easy. I'd definitely recommend this place for fun beach activities and a chill atmosphere.
